Garmin Pilot 8.6!!!!

[Marauder]

With apologies to the twins (Peter and Steven Garmin), Garmin Pilot 8.6 has some serious flaws. Both iOS versions on my two iPads crashed on me repeatedly after the upgrade. I took the time to reload the app on one of the iPads without any improvement.

Just got off of the phone with Garmin technical support. They indicated they know of the issue. It is a problem with their servers and will be resolved either later today or tomorrow with version 8.6.1.

If you haven't updated yet, DON'T!!!!

Works for me, what were you doing that cause it to crash?

Works for me too. Chris was probably drooling over pics of his "girls" and evidently overloaded the ipads.

I loaded updates two nights ago on both I-Pads.  Would NOT function on flight yesterday.  When you would go to the map it crashed and closed.  NOT Happy.  Costs too much to have this crap happen.  Thankfully had back-up on 696 running fine for Nav.

That is the way it crashed for me too.

Mine is working too, flew with a IFR student yesterday without any problems.
Thanks so much for letting us know Chris!

He was uploading pics of really big women to use as screen enhancement on Garmin pilot!

Back online. Will report if I find anything else glitchy.

I've never been an early adopter for new software or the latest updates for this very reason (I'm still on v8.5.3).  Thanks for blazing the trail for us Chris. 

Cheers,

My glide rings are gone also.  

New version (8.6.1) supposedly fix the issue, cannot confirm yet.
